Abbaye de Bouchet, Cistercian abbey in Bouchet, France

Abbaye de Bouchet is a Romanesque stone monastery in France with a Latin cross layout, single nave, and protruding transept. The monastic buildings contain vaulted ceilings and well-preserved medieval living quarters with approximately twenty cells in the dormitory section.

The abbey was founded between 1181 and 1184 by Tiburge II of Orange. The monastery declined during the Hundred Years War, which reshaped its role in the region.

The abbey held the tomb of Bertrand de Garrigue, a Dominican companion of Saint Dominic who died there on 6 or 18 April 1230 and was buried in the conventual cemetery; his relics were moved into the abbatial church in 1253. In 1414 the Dominicans of Orange came to Bouchet and exhumed the body for their own convent. A tombstone in the north arm of the transept marks the burial place.

The abbey church and monastic building stand inside the village of Bouchet, around a square Place de l'abbaye about 25 m across that now serves as a concrete parking area. The church, roughly 13 m long, lies along the square's north side; the former converses' building, about 46 m by 11 m, stands to the north-west, slightly offset south of the church. A gravestone in the north transept arm marks where Blessed Bertrand de Garrigue was buried.

The abbey church, about 13 metres long, keeps a tombstone in its north transept marking where Blessed Bertrand de Garrigue was buried after his death at Bouchet on 6 or 18 April 1230. His relics were moved to the abbey church in 1253, then taken by the Dominicans of Orange in 1414.
